A virtual test bench: tensile stress-strain, three-point bend, fatigue (S-N), and custom-geometry 2D FEA — driven by a cited property database. NiTi’s superelastic plateau, springback, yield, endurance limit, and a real browser finite-element stress field.
No install · No signup · Runs in your browser. Educational and research tool — not a medical device.
Four classic material tests plus a real finite-element solver — in the browser, on cited data.
Pull any material to failure and read modulus, yield, and ultimate strength off the curve.
Bend a beam and see the NiTi superelastic plateau and springback emerge.
Cyclic loading to an endurance limit — why a wire eventually fails.
Draw a geometry and solve a real plane-stress field in the browser.
Pick a material, pick a test, read the physics.
Select from the cited property database — NiTi, stainless, TMA, and more.
Tensile, bend, fatigue, or a custom 2D FEA geometry.
Curves, key properties, and a finite-element stress field — every value sourced.
Every material property comes from a published source, and the finite-element solver is validated against closed-form benchmarks — so NiTi’s superelastic plateau, springback, and endurance behaviour reflect the literature, not a stylised curve.
For teaching material science and prototyping ideas before the bench.
Build real intuition before the clinic — change a parameter and watch the mechanics respond, instead of memorizing rules.
A transparent, citable model for teaching and study. Every value traces to a published equation.
Translate material and design parameters into the force system delivered — a virtual bench before you cut metal.
Orthodontic-relevant alloys such as NiTi, stainless steel, and beta-titanium (TMA), each backed by published property values, with more in the database.
Yes — it is a genuine 2D plane-stress finite-element solver running in your browser, validated against closed-form solutions, not a pre-rendered picture.
It's completely free, with no signup, and runs entirely in your browser — nothing is downloaded or installed.
No. It is an educational and research simulation of general biomechanics using generic, user-entered parameters. It does not use patient data and is not intended for the diagnosis or treatment planning of individual patients.
